GENERAL SHERMAN WILL oom1

 the Monument to be Modified.
 General William T. Sherman will be in New Haven to attend the dedication of the soldiers monument. The committee on in- vitations yesterday morning received letter from him accepting the invitation to be pres ent.
 The plans for the granite coping of the monument are to be modified. Twenty feet, the distance which it was intended to have the coping from the monument, has been de- cided as too short, and it is probable that the coping will be laid about forty feet from the shaft.
 The Governors Foot and Horse Guards of Hartford are ordered to New Haven for June 17th in place of the usual spring pa rade.
 The Ames bronze department of Chlcopee have nearly finished the big piece of statuary ordered by the city of New Haven for the monument. The group consists of three figures one of which is the largest piece of bronze statuary ever cast.

WASHINGTON, May A.-The day was given up on the national drill grounds to-day to the competitive drill of infantry. Each com pany was limited to twenty-four men with the three officers and two guides and was given thirty minutes to go through pro- grammo of man@uvers submitted to it only an hour before the drill began. In general terms each squad was to exercise first in the school of the soldier (that is without arms), then in the manual of arms and lastly in the school of the company. The companies com peting to-day were the Minneapolis Light In- fantry, Seelye Citizens Corps of Rochester, N. Y., Mascatine, Iowa, Rifles, Grand Rapids Guards, Company A, First battalion of Virginia troops (colored), State Guard of Virginia (colored), Vicksburg Southrons and Company A of the First Virginia regiment. The Neck Zouaves of Johnstown, N. Y., then gave an exhibi- tion. A furious thunder and wind storm came up about o'clock and put an end to the proceedings. The crowd scattered at once. The roof was blown off large part of the grand stand and the canvas rocks, forts and war vessels and lighthouse of the "pyorama" exhibition were tipped over and scattered. The order for the dress parade at five o'clock was rescinded.

BARNYARD WORK.
improvements That Will Prove . Coos
Financial Investment

improvements That Will Prove . Good
Financial Investment.
Tons Of valuable manure are wasted
upon some farms by allowing the drop
pings Of the barnyard to be troddcn
into the soil during the wet weather Of
spring. This is especially SO in the
yard of the dairyman. All summer the
droppings accumulate, and if scraped
off late in the fall one will be surprised
ut the amount Of fertilizer obtained.
The work should he done while the
surface is damp, but when the ground
is not thoroughly soaked.
If the yard is large road-scraper is
the best implement to use. and with
even small, one-horse scraper, the
work can be quickly performed. Ayard
that is kept rounding and clean will
not poach up like those where the
droppings arc never removed. A coat
ing of manure retains water, and es-
pccially when it is trodden down and
mixed up with loan or clay. If there
is an incline to the barnyard, and there
should be, even if one side has to be
filled in with sand and gravel to make
it so, water will flow off readily after a
thorough scraping.
The cleanings, Of course, contain
more or less Of the surface soil, which
will be richer than it otherwise would
be through its absorbing the liquids Of
the yard. II the land is clay, it will
pay to coat the surface in summer,
when dry, with sand. or sand and loan,
and then remove this late in the fall
with the droppings. If the soil is sandy
use clay, or clay and loan, ashes, etc.
There is no speculative theory in this,
for We have saved from our dairy milk
ing yard, carting in and scraping out
ton after ton of the very best fertilizer
we have ever used.
Another work that should be done is
the building of stock sheds around the
outer edges OF the barn-yard. They
need not be expensive. and should be
plated upon at least two sides. from
which the prevailing winds blow.
Every observing farmer knows how a
cold rain will chill his stock, and es-
pecially when the animals are accus-
toned to stable protection at night.
They will back into the fence corners
and SILVER off more flesh in one day
than can be replaced in week. sss4 q
A few crotches, boards and poles,
will build the frame work, and the roof
may be matched with straw or coated
with corn stalks for these will do much
towards rendering the place comfort
able during a storm; but We would adj
wise building good. substantial sheds.
where time and means can be afforded.
Such sheds, either expensive or mex
pensive. will prove good financial in
vestment, for feed will be saved and
mich cows be more productive, and
the stock in general will 60 through
the winteri n much better condition. 1t
is upon farms where winter protection
is not afforded animals, that we see the

A VALID STATUTE.

Tho Constitutionality Of the Kansas
Liquor Law Afarmed by the United
States Supreme COurt-No C0npensa-
tion for Property Rendered Worthless.
WASHINGTON, Dec. Justice Harlan de-
livered the opinion OF the Supreme Court
Monday in the two so-called prohibit on
cases of Joseph Mulger. plaintiff in error,
vs. The State of Kansas. and in the case of
the State Of Kansas VS.. Herman Ziebold
and others, affirming the judgment of the
lower court In the two Vulgar cases. and
case. The effect of this opinion
is to declare valid the prohibition
laws of the state of Kansas, and Is, OF
course, victory for the prohibitionists.
The court said that the case came up under
the laws OF Kansas declaring the mainte-
nance of building for the manufacture
and sale of intoxicants misdemeanOr. 1t
was commended that this law was unconsti-
tutional because 1t abridged the rights of
citizens to property without due process of
law, the building used as a brewery being
Of little value for any other purpose
Justice Harlan said it had been held re-
peatedly that the right Of State to regu-
late the sale of liquor did not invade the
constitutional rights of the citizen 1t was
contended, however. he said, that no state
Legislature had right to prohibit any per-
son from manufacturing liquor for his own
use or for export, for the reason that it was
an invasion on the personal liberty in.
herent in citizens 1t must be OBJ
served however, he said, that the right to
manufacture drink for ones own use was
subject to the restriction that it should not
injuriously affect the public. Tho right to

what measures were necessary for the pres
ervation Of the public morals, health and
safety had heretofore been vested in the
States by the constitutional right given
them under the police power to regulate
their own internal concerns. While this
police power could not be abused and must
only be exercised for objects of real merit,
this court would certainly not say that the
liquor traffic was not one which tho State
could lawfully prohibit, because it was well
known that the abuse OF intOxicants was
productive Of paupersm and crime.
The next ground of contention, the JUS
tice said, was, that the breweries had been
erected prior 70 the passage of the prohibit
ton law. and as they We're OF little use ex-
ccpt for breweries. their property was
taken without due process OF law in
violation of the constitution Bat d
property under our form of govern
ment. he held, was subject to the obliga-
ton that it should not he Us i SO
US to injuriously affect the rights OF the
community, and thereby become nuisance.
The State Of Kansas had right to prohibit
the liquor traffic 1t did not thereby take
away the property of brewers 1t simply
abated nuisance. The property was not
taken away from its owners; they were
only prohibited from using it for specific
purpose, which the Legislature declared to
be injurious to the community.
